Water

Water system residential connection fees for a standard installation with a 5/8″ X 3/4″ inside water meter will have a $500.00 tap in fee. A water service application form must be downloaded, completed and returned to the village office with this tap in fee. Once this fee is paid, the Village will provide the homeowner with a water meter and associated fittings. The water service is then ready to be activated.

Water will be billed monthly, based on metered usage.
